Best thing I have read in forever. This is so true, it tears me up.
I constantly feel like I’m raging war with the whole world to simply be me. It’s a whole system that sets us up to fail and then tells us how to better our lives, at which we will fail again. I’ve bought into so many ‘self-help techniques for productivity and bettering your life’ and miserably failed because they are all designed for extroverts. At some point, you sit down and question if it’s you and not the system that needs change. It’s always reassuring to hear voices of hope and reason like yours. Thank you for writing this.
